The M3 is a Hungarian motorway connecting Budapest to Nyíregyháza. It will eventually connect Budapest to the Ukrainian border. Two other motorways branch off it, the M30 (connecting the M3 to Miskolc) and the M35 (connecting the M3 to Debrecen). The M3 follows the route of route 3, and, later, route 4. The last section of the motorway, the one between Görbeháza and Nyíregyháza was opened to the public in August 2007. The total length of the motorway now is 230 km.
